How will Apple fix this?

Question

It seems to me that from reading all the discussions and posts of different people who have the phone already, the main and consistent problem the the ios4 is the reception due to the antenna and design of the phone. There are other problems people are having with the phone, however, not everybody is having those problems. Some people aren't having problems at all, with the exception of signal reception.
My question is what would apple do to fix this? Besides purchasing a bumper, is there any other solution, besides move a little this way or that to improve signal and keep ya hand off certain places on the phone? Or will Apple just let it ride because they know people will still continue to buy it? Thoughts??

Answer 1

“I am honestly thinking about returning the phone number but can’t let go of the crisp display.”
And THIS is exactly why Steve can get away with such an outrageous statement. What other manufacturer would have the big brass ones to even HINT that a phone that drops calls when handled is somehow the fault of the consumer? And yet this company will continue to bask in the glow of this phone that “changes everything, again”. Who would have thought we would be going beyond the days of the hand-held cell phone? Perhaps this is similar to how we’re moving beyond the days of the pc (daily pc worldwide sales and current 20% growth figures notwithstanding)….
The bottom line is shame on us as early adopters. Any of us with experience owning Apple portable devices have no grounds for complaint- this isn’t the first time we’ve been given such a lesson in paternalism by the lord of form-over-function (nothing new, btw, see Apple III). As long as we continue to drink the kool-aid why expect anything to change?
